Are any of the Creation Club items worth getting?

[Ki11s0n3]

Like the Capital Wasteland Mercenaries bundle?

or is there anything else of value worth spending the money on? I have the backpack, but was wondering if there was anything else worth picking up.

As I have been burned by hitting the invisible CC limit that kills your game and makes you reinstall, obviously I am guilty of downloading a lot of (mostly free) CC stuff. Before I realised every download was bringing me closer to having to complete uninstall, backup, reinstall and restore my main game installation.

Now in hindsight I'm not sure any of the stuff I paid money for was worth paying money for. It is not, as some claim, all crap, but neither is any of it stellar. I have heard good things about the VR workshop, which is basically a paradise for people who like to build. The settlement ambush kit is ok, but buggy. The one where you can make your own vaultsuits was a nice little one, that may have been free. The weapons and armour, that just feels dumb, somebody wants to charge me money to buff a gun? Nah.

I think a lot of it is interesting, novelty stuff that would be fine to download for free or cheap, if every download wasn't another nudge towards the abyss of a borked game installation. Which, sadly, it is.

Messaggio originale di Fritzpud:

Would highly suggest against it, or if you do, limit the amount to an extreme. If you have too many installed, various starting quests, as well as exiting the vault sometimes, do not work. Gets worse the more you have installed. Bethesda in their infinite wisdom has given no method of uninstalling, past deleting all game files manually, then re-installing the what, 80gb game now? It's been a known issue for years, and has gotten no support / patch.

Just to tldr; If you spend too much money on creation club garbage, the game stops working.

. my god its like todd is staging an intervention for you for spending to much money on mods #goodguybethesda

Do we know what the limit is? Kinda dumb there is one to begin with since most of it is just skins.

settlement ambush mod. Too much trouble flying back to sanctuary for a 2 minute defence, espcially when I give everyone overcharged plasmas. Usually resolved quickly through the video cameras.

No, hence "invisible".

It seems to be around 30-40 items and is definitely variable. It's definitely not the case that there are specific bad items, it's more the cumulative effect.

Also, only install one at a time, even though that's a massive PITA. It's not as big of a PITA as a full reinstall.

Basically if CC was a paid subscription service they would have to give everyone refunds.

The best solution I have found for CC stuff is to pull them all out of the Data directory and add them into MO2 as individual mods. Then I can activate what I want for a given playthrough. This also stops you from having to move stuff around more than one time. Plus, when you download something new, its goes into Overwrite instead of the your Data directory.

[The Inept European]

That. Is. Awesome!

Don't feed the microtransaction shop! You can get all the stuff you might be interested for free as a mod ;)
